I only had a few non specific symptoms:Itchy skin, slight annoying pain under my right rib cage if I laid on my left side, and the skin on was chest was always red like a sunburn but didn't hurt. I had actually asked about the discoloration and my doc said it was probably sun damage.

53yo married 27 years, 2 children, 24 and 25Diagnosed april 23,2015 rectosigmoid Starting CEA 1845Port placement and liver bx April 27 Folfox started april 29Avastin added on May 6Stage IV crc with mets to 50% of liver

My mother never had symptoms of the cancer in her liver until the very end when she had serious clotting issues. But even with most of her liver cancerous she didn't have pain or jaundice and most of her liver levels were in, or close to, normal range. Her doctors were shocked that she wasn't in pain but she said she never felt anything. Her Onco only moved up her scan because her CEA jumped and found a 9xmX9cm tumor in her right lobe of her liver.

DH had numerous liver mets at diagnosis. His initial symptoms were some right upper quadrant pain. They were thinking referred pain from appendicitis or pneumonia. Turns out it was neither. His symptoms showed up about 3 days before diagnosis. And obviously those mets were there for a while, not just 3 days.
